I don’t like the crew nearly as much as I do the crew from TNG (which...well, doesn’t mean much since TNG is my favorite show all-time), but they did genuinely have some really solid, very STAR TREK episodes. One of my biggest issues with some of DS9 and with the newer shows (and especially the new movies) is that…

Counterpoint: Voyager is my favorite Trek series. There’s room for all of us in the Holodeck!

I’m in the middle of my first watch through of Voyager since it aired. It’s better than I remembered. 

I’ve really wanted a massive crossover for all of the 24th century crews for so long, and I need to be very careful not to get my hopes up too much! It would be awesome to see an ongoing series where all of the old characters, and plenty of new ones team up as the plot demands. I know thats not what this is going to…

As a shameless fan of Voyager this makes me happy, but I really hope they don’t just use Picard as a repository for every TNG-era character fans want to revisit. Like, they have to be relevant to Picard and his story to work.

Due to a time loop caused by super-heated tachyon particles, the Star Trek 50th Anniversary was actually sucked into a wormhole, only to re-appear in 2019. This is how you get good things.

There would have had to have been an actual event for it to be a disaster.

What an amazing time to be a Trek fan. This makes up for the disaster we call the 50th Anniversary.

I dislike him for the same reason I dislike Beto O’Rourke. He’s just some dude with no qualifications, no notable successes, and no big policy idea, just like, I’m young white and goodlooking for a politician, I could be president, right?

The UK brexited the Federation and Picard finally had to admit that he’s not French but secretly English?

It would be remiss not to note the role the current regime in the United States has had in fostering incel culture. Gamergate was a watershed moment in mobilizing online misogyny. Some of the key people fanning the flames of online anger associated with that event include Steve Bannon and Milo Yiannopoulos. They…

So basically...

“I want a paternity test.”

Trump, three weeks from now, when Jr. is indicted for perjury:

From what I understand, Phelps’ body has been proven to produce dramatically less lactic acid than the average human, allowing him to recover much faster from physical output. He’s a biological freak with a giant wing span and super mobility that allows him to move his body in a way others can’t -- I haven’t seen…

I read an article about Michael Phelps once that described the many ways his physiology and biochemistry is different from the average schlub’s, making him a swimming machine. Never did the article suggest that this was a negative thing that should be suppressed, the tone of the article was more "wow, this is super…

I don’t know how to explain to people that I’m not an issue: I’m a person. The Atlantic goes out of their way to play this edgelord both-sides game, and I’m more than done with it. I have to fight court battles over bathrooms; do you think I really want to read what some uninformed, empathy-bankrupt hack thinks of my…

I still remember that one of the earliest conversations I had with my now-husband was about the line “you held your breath and the door for me”

I agree with this take (and could apply it to so many things I loved in the 90s), but the fact remains that “You Oughta Know” is the best goddamn karaoke song ever to exist in the history of anywhere because 1) every woman in the bar will scream out the lyrics along with you, masking your truly hideous voice, and…

I’m kind of a music snob. And in my music snob universe, I’ve always considered Alanis a new-age Leonard Cohen. She wrote her hit album at NINETEEN, for volcano gurl’s sake.
